How to Create an Internet Radio Station

This tutorial will help you set up an Internet Radio station on your server. You can create the content and then provide it for your listeners. The example uses an Ubuntu server for the set up.Step #1: Download the Shoutcast Server (latest version):

I am currently broadcasting at http://www.pirateradionetwork.com with Windows XP on the radio destiny broadcaster. It works great but I hate Windows. I have Ubuntu 8.2 now on an extra hard drive. Do I need my own server and the Sam2 broadcaster to use shoutcast or icecast? I can always get these programs for free from Ares file sharing. Most important, is this buffering audio or a webstream? I have webstream now, its great. I hope a windows emulator will work on Ubuntu for my clipstream broacast.

nice ,
I did this several years ago on my own with ices0 and icecaster streaming .ogg , and has been streaming audio over ip as an
“STL” -> (Station To Transmitter Link)
for my leagal FM RADIO Station KTRT 97.5 in Winthrop WA,
running rivendell radio station automation system
on ubuntu ,,,(what was suse 10)
now ubuntu 8.04,
lots of work,
but it runs great and saves me thousands upon thousands
we now have 4 terabytes of audio

i need to update the streamer to somthing that will do mp3 streames soon and put it on a public access server , i am thinking to use fluendo streaming server, i guess its just a plugin to gstreamer in ubuntu
